    9 sides

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First we need to know the formula for the sum of internal angles of a polygon with n sides:

    S = (n-2) * 180

    So if this polygon has n sides (therefore n angles) and 3 of these angles are 120°, we have that (n-3) angles have 150°, so we can formulate that:

    3*120 + (n-3) * 150 = (n-2) * 180

    360 + 150n - 450 = 180n - 360

    30n = 270

    n = 9

    The polygon has 9 sides.
